Tower of Technobabble

Hold on to your bladders, because it’s time for Tower of Technobabble's Tales of Terror - we have frightening tales from 1970s television, an original horror story, and a cryptid tale that the Repeater somehow missed. Are you holding your bladders? Seriously? Okay then. Here we go!

That’s Incredible/Amityville Horror crossover - http://www.amityvillefaq.com/intti.html

We have science advisor, Rich, to keep us company again as we wade through the murky waters of the urban sasquatch in this week's podcast as it is unofficially the return of the "Bigfoot Roundup!!" I say unofficial because the original intro music for the bigfoot roundup strangely disappeared at the same time as the Conduit (Dave). Enjoy!

Another episode of the Tower's Firing Squad - 

• Paul has a scary ghost movie review (except there aren't any ghosts in it I swear!!)

• and Ben revels in the legacy of Snake River Canyon, 40 years later

The Repeater - Scary haunted...uh...microwave story

AND...

Science Advisor Rich reveals the TRUE ethics of class:

Today we discuss embarrassing moments. Not just your average gaffs, but generally earth shattering moments of embarrassment...everybody's got one. Even now, I'm considering not posting this podcast. Geez...I wonder if I'll be recognized.

The Repeater fears the lying liars on Facebook

Kentucky Slim parades the merits of the hermit lifestyle

and The Conduit shares weird ass scientific questions from the new book by the author of xkcd.

The Conduit takes a special moment to review the mystery that was the XFL. Get your helmet and singlet on. This is gonna get messy!

We're back, streamlined and ready for Season 5! We kick things off with stories about enforced typing nostalgia, what's new at the zoo (escaping wolves, that's what!) and the problem with grimdire diregrim superhero movies. Welcome back to the Tower!

We return to the thrilling days of yesteryear, when, during the world record attempt at Wonderfest, our scratchy throated cast of meat bags attempted to do an episode from the Lone Ranger radio show. Get ready for accents going berserk, the most awkward saddling scene ever, and the surprising revelation about where our hero got all that silver.
